Thank you very much everyone. This was mamma's 2nd hospital stay and after a week and a half I was told on Easter that it was the end. Her brother was on his way up to see her on a Tuesday so I could finish up a side job then stay 100% with her, then he collapsed at the hospital full cardiac arrest. With all their efforts they were unable to revive him in time to avoid severe brain damage. He died that next day on a Wednesday. Mamma died the following day. My cousin that was in the hospital with her but had already gone home, died one week later in her sleep. I am an only child and have a difficult task of clearing out her house and disassembling her life of 76 years. And with Mother's Day and then her birthday yesterday - it's been very hard. I'm sorry I've not been in here much but I more or less shut out everyone for a while, nevermind spending all my free time at the hospital. i was also at her house trying to get things redone and ready for her when she came home. Unfortunately all she got to see of it was photos. By losing her, I've lost my family. She was all I had left. I have some cousins and an aunt and uncle, but no one I'm really close to. Makes for lonely evenings |
